Enchanting Borneo
Bowden, David, 1952-2011
Book
Described by Charles Darwin as 'one great luxuriant hothouse made by nature for herself', Borneo is home to a rich profusion of flora and fauna, including 669 bird species; a diversity of mammals including the Proboscis Monkey, the Bornean Pygmy Elephant, and the Orang-Utan; and an immense variety of marine life, invertebrates, amphibians and reptiles. From the spectacular peak of Mount Kinabalu, the tallest mountain in Southeast Asia, to the depths of the world's largest cave in Sarawak's Mulu National Park, and encompassing some of the world's most exotic wildlife watching locations along the Kinabatangan river and at Danum Valley, Borneo is an unrivalled destination for adventurous and eco travellers. Enchanting Borneo is a captivating portrait of this beautiful Southeast Asian island.
